Function

Promotes multiciliated cell formation during multiciliate cell differentiation. Mutations lead to severe axonemal defects, lack of ciliary motility- related proteins (25048963). Promotes the transcriptional changes required for motile ciliogenesis and centriole assembly, it induces motile cilia outgrowth via FoxJ1, centriole assembly and basal body formation. Regulates the genes required for multiciliated cells differentiation (22231168, 26933123).
